4 quarts popped popcorn (2 bags of microwave popcorn)
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup butter
1/4 cup corn syrup
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp baking soda
Brown Paper Grocery Bag


In a 2 quart glass bowl, combine brown sugar, butter, corn syrup, salt and vanilla. Microwave it for 3 minutes. Take it out, stir it and nuke it for another 1-1/2 minutes. Take it out, stir in baking soda...it will foam up a little. Pour syrup over popcorn in bag. Roll down the top of the bag a couple times to close it and shake to coat the corn. Place the bag in the microwave and heat it for 1 minute and 10 seconds. Remove, shake, flip the bag over and heat another 1 minute and 10 seconds. Dump the corn out onto waxed paper, separating it a little and let it cool to room temp. Store in an air tight container.
